    Orb & 622

    well the input to the pc card can support s-video or video/audio yellow/red/white. I have the audio left and right (red and white) going to the input on my tv. Would I have to buy a splittler to split the audio, then use the audio out from the 622 to both the tv and the pc if I am using TV1?

    Orb & 622

    Hi everyone- I have a PC with a tv tuner card and ORB installed. I want to be able to hook up my 622 to the pc but TV2 doesn't use IR and I have TV1 hooked up via component cables to my lcd tv. Am I out of luck?

    New Audio problem with 3.63 on 622 when will it be fixed?

    I had this problem tonight. I paused "My Name is Earl" while viewing it live OTA. The screen went black, and the lights on the front of the box were off. When I "un-paused" there was no sound. I tried changing the channel, but I had to reset. I hope this software is swapped out fast because...

    Watching a channel during uplink change

    I am still a newbie here but I have a silly question that I have to ask. I alway look at the uplink reports to see what is going on with Dish Network. I am wondering what it looks like to the average customer when Dish makes a change like: 9435 STZHD MOVED FROM Tp 10 ConUS beam on EchoStar...

    what can I get Dish to do about 129?

    I was wondering what I can get Dish to do about my reception problems on 129. I watch the HD channels 90% of the time, the rest of the time I watch OTA broadcasts. Atleast once per hour on any of the HD channels, my picture goes to blocks and jitters, etc. I notice it most with the DVR HD...

    Any deals for those already with HD platnium

    I was wondering if they plan on offering anything to those who already carry platnium HD and have a 622. Seems like we should get some sort of deal.

    adding 5.1 audio to 622 recommendations?

    Currently I have an LCD HDTV with the 622 receiver. I wanted to expand my setup to include a speaker system. What should I look for to add sound through the audio output on the back of the 622. What components do I need or could someone give me an example of what will work? Thanks

    KRON 4.2 breakup with motion on 622

    That didn't help. Why is it that only one station from Sutro tower is exhibiting this problem? Do I need to climb on the roof?

    KRON 4.2 breakup with motion on 622

    I live in the San Francsico Bay area and recently had a CM4228 installed along with a DISH 622. I receive all my channels here in the Bay area very well most of which are from Sutro tower. I do receive some from San Jose with my current antenna position. All other stations from Sutro look...

    Previous VOOM lineup

    Thank You riffjim4069 for a very good answer. It seems like a no brainer for Dish to have these extra channels since they were already in use. I know Dish wants to be knows as the industry leader in HD so subtracting these channels doesn't make much sense. Does anyone know if other than the...

    Previous VOOM lineup

    I noticed that VOOM used to carry many more channels before they went over to DISH network. Can anyone tell me what some of the channels used to be? Anyword on when some of those channels will make it back to Dish network? I would really like MAX-HD and TMC-HD.

    Why do all the HD locals look horrible?!

    Here is SF bay Area I compared HD NBC to OTA HD NBC and the difference was huge. The shadowing on the Dish HD in the background made it look grainy. The OTA is vivid and sharp. At least the 622 has a nice ATSC tuner ;-)

    switching recurring timers to different tv

    That is the problem I have because if you set the preference to TV1 then all of the recordings will record there. Is the an "on the fly" way to switch the tuner? OR....if they cancel the recordingon TV2 does it pick up immediatly on TV1?
